The 2009 financial environment is leaving many people feeling uncertain about Share Trading, one only has to observe the charts and read the news on businesses in strife, to realise how volatile the Share market is. Yes there is still plenty of money in it, and with many shares available at basement prices, there is plenty of chance to make good long term profits.
Because of this, many investors are now switching their gaze to the Forex markets as an alternative choice for investment. There are many ways to trade Forex, Long term or Scalping, the list goes on, but there is one thing they all offer the unwary, a high level of risk if you start trading thinking it’s easy.
There are two core analysis techniques; Fundamental Analysis, basing trading decisions on news events and Technical Analysis, which involves interpreting the charts using a variety of indicators. This is how I like to trade as I am not reliant on news feeds. It doesn’t matter which you choose, to minimize potential losses, you are going to have to learn Forex trading before you start committing any hard earned cash.
A good starting introduction to the basics is offered by Babypips.com, at no cost, but they do not train you into how to create Forex trading strategies.
What is a Forex trading strategy? Simply put, it is a system for setting money management rules, analysing the progression of a chart, establishing a possible trade entry point (Setup), confirming the entry point, opening a trade, establishing an exist strategy to both minimise losses and to take profits.
A trading strategy is of the utmost importance when Forex trading, without it there is no way of working out why you entered a loosing trade and how to correct it, or why the trade worked and how you could improve it.
When you begin trading, a trading strategy provides the system for trading on a Demo account. These are provided by most brokers and allow you to make some test trades, without risking real money. You establish an account balance and trade as the charts move using your trading strategy and watch your account either profit or crash. You’ll soon see if the strategy you are testing stacks up!
To learn how to develop a a specific trading strategy for profiting from market rebounds, there is a free video course which will teach you a trade called the “Rubber Band Trade” and shows you what is involved in developing a trading strategy.
It’s a very profitable trading strategy developed by a Professional Trader and teaches all the steps for this specific trade. Once you have tested this strategy on a Demo account and made it work consistently, you can make it work on a real account and start pulling some profitable trades whilst you develop and test other trading strategies that will make your Forex trading a success.
I regularly use this trading strategy and still trade it when the charts set up correctly. A quick 20-30 pips? Why would you miss the chance?
